The Lord gives us 7 judgments in Scripture, They each have a time; a place; to whom they are given and the results:
  1. The Judgments of the sins of the Believers. The Time: A.D.30, Place: The Cross, The Results: Death for Christ, Life for Us. John 19:17-18; 1 Pet. 3:18; 2 Cor. 5:21; John 5:24 A.S.V.; 1 Pet. 2:24; Gal. 3:13; Heb. 9:26; Rom. 8:1 A.S.V.
  2. Self in the believer must be judged. Time: Anytime, Place: Anyplace, Results: Chastisement. 1 Cor. 11:31-32; 5:5; 1 Tim. 1:20; Heb. 12:7; 2 Sam. 7:14-15; 1 Pet. 4:17; 2 Sam. 12:13-14.
  3. The works of the believer are to be judged. Time: When Christ comes, Place: In the air; Results: To the believer, "rewards" or "loss," "but he himself will be saved," 1 Cor. 3:12-15. It is a solemn thought, that though Christ bore our sins in His own body on the Cross, and God has entered into covenant with us to remember them no more (Heb. 10:17) , every work must come into judgment. (2 Cor. 5:9-10) (Rom. 14:10). Both of these passages are specifically for believers by their context. In 2 Cor. 5:6-8 He is speaking of believers by the context of the Scripture. These passages could not be to unbelievers, for it does not fit their placement of, "present with the Lord". "Wherefore .......we make it our aim (in either place) "with the Lord or in the body---to please Him," "for we must all be made manifest before the Judgment Seat of Christ," (2 Cor. 5:9). In Romans 14:10, "we" and "brother" limit the passage to believers. The Holy Spirit never so mingles the saved and the lost. Then, lest it would seem incredible that a blood-cleansed saint could come into any judgment whatever, the Apostle quotes from Isaiah to prove that every knee shall bow...."Then he adds, "Then shall everyone of us give an account of himself to God." Rom. 14:11-12; Compare Isa. 45:23; Phil. 2:10-11. Time of this judgment: Matt. 16:27; 1 Cor. 4:5; 2 Tim. 4:8; Luke 14:14; Rev. 22:12.
  4. The nations are to be judged: Time: The glorious appearing of Christ; Place: The Valley of Jehoshaphat. Results: Some declared lost, some declared saved. Time Scripture: Matt. 25:31-32; 13:40-41; Place Scripture: Joel 3:1-2, 12-14 Basis, the treatment of those whom Christ calls "My brethren." Matt. 25: 40, 45; Compare Joel 3:3, 6-7. These brethern are believed to be the Jewish remnant who will have turned to the Lord Jesus as their Messiah during, "The Great Tribulation," or "Time of Jacobs trouble." (This is not the Great White Throne Judgment)
  5. Regathered Israel is to be judged:
  6. The wicked Dead are to be judged:
  7. The Angels are to be Judged. I will give Scripture proof for the rest of the Judgments later as some will not study the Scriptures for they will probably not bother because of their own belief.
